Disneyland unFORECAST (BETA) is here! Top MouseWaiters giving you the rundown of what's happening at the Disneyland Resort. The unFORECAST now has its own page on the web www.unFORECAST.com

Unforecast for week September 6. It's starting to look a lot like Halloween! The Giant pumpkin is back watching over Main Street! Get your photo op done there during meal times and the line will be shorter. The crowd index is showing lower crowds for a bit, but Haunted Mansion Holiday returns September 9, expect crowds to increase, especially this weekend. It's also AP DAYS. You can go to Paradise Garden Grill in DCA to receive a free button and recipe cards each week while supplies last. At stage 12 in DCA, after they scan your AP, they'll also give you pins, and then you can line up for a character meet and greet, and there are more activities including non- character photo ops, coloring pages, free water and various exhibits showing offerings during Halloweentyme at the parks. Everything is on a limited basis, so try to get your items early each week. Throughout the parks sample new things to eat and try to join an MWMEETUP which you can find under the events tab in the site menu. Poison apples should be out for sale soon, get them early, things sell out quickly this time of year! Have a great week! - secretagentangel Sep 6, 2016 7:54PM

We have always noticed that Saturdays are better than Sundays! We always come on the weekend and say we want to leave at dinner time on Sunday, but always leave by 11-12 because there are so many people. We love Saturday!! - 1Princess3Princes

I agree. I think it has to do with most passes being blocked - PoohSizedGuy 20.6 #7740 11:53PM

Saturday's rule! One of the perks of a premium pass! - snappy 468.2 #512 7:32AM

I love these posts! I do have a question/request/suggestion...is there a way to only show the 3-4 most recent posts? It's a lot to scroll through. @@Admin - TiggersAndTinks

August 17 - It was still crowded yesterday, though it starts emptying out about 9 pm since some schools are in session and others are watching PTN. These are your last week's to watch PTN and the current WOC, and the 60th fireworks nightly show. Take advantage on a weeknight if you can. And on week nights, the jazz band plays several sets up until 10:15 pm on the Matk Twain and alternate with sets while cruising the ROA on a tom sawyers raft. We saw the band on the river at 10:40 Tuesday night. Market house is closed at night for coffee, the closest coffee after park hours is Starbucks DD/ WOD. or coffee bean in Haggen Dazs DD ice cream store till midnight. - secretagentangel

When I do polkadots, I take a pencil with an eraser, and stick a sewing pin with a round colored top in the eraser.makes for a perfect dotting tool. Just out some nail polish on a paper plate, paper towel, whatever, dip the pinhead in the paint a bit, and dot it on a nail polished fingernail. Practice a bit on the plate first to get the sizes how you want. :) - flukefan 270.5 #1253 3:22PM

That sounds good, I can't wait to give it a shot when we go next! Thanks for the help! - ya0z3rs 8.6 #13135 3:26PM

I use a Sally Hansen Nail Art Pen, it works wonders!! - LizO 471.1 #506 7:42PM

Those are pricey for me...a pin, pencil, and bottle of nail polish are still cheaper than one of those pens. #frugalcollegestudent :) - flukefan 270.5 #1253 9:11PM

Yes they can be a little too much. I get them when they are on sale at Target. #momoftwo #disneylandannualpasses ;) - LizO 471.1 #506 9:48PM

Well first paint all nails red. With a toothpic cut off th tip and with white nail polish you can do the dots. And the Mickey after the red is dry do a thiker French tip but with the black and the 2 yellow dots. And your all done 😁💅 - JayyD0ll

Cool! Sounds easy enough! Did you use Revlon for all your colors? Do you find any one brand works best because you did such a fantastic job! It looks soooo clean! After all the waiting and drying, how long do you think it took from start to finish? Sorry for all the q's just REALLY excited to try it before our next upcoming visit! Thanks again for the post and sharing! 👍😃 - ya0z3rs 8.6 #13135 3:33PM

Went to visit my 85 year old grandmother tonight and she handed me an envelope and opened it and there were 18 years of her annual passes....I took a pic of the ones that were not the same two years in a row

I forgot to thank you all for the nice comments...It was my Grandmothers idea to get us Annual Passes as a kid and the very first year they came out which was I think 1983 or 1984 she bought them for us. It was funny my Grandmother saying, where is my pass from the very first year..I said oh Grandma remember they use to not let you keep them and took them..she said no I think somebody was going though my stuff and stole it..No Grandmad, nobody wasnts your old used APs HAHAHA - Dave
